Going, hopefully not for good.
Dan Lee is going back to Oz later in the year.
It will be a great moment for his family and friends. A loss for those of us who have had the pleasure of the sunlight he has brought to our lives here in the UK.
I cannot express how much I have enjoyed the adventures we have been through together. The memories will last forever. We still have few more adventures to complete.
So bring them on whilst we can Mr Lee.
Good days and bad days
Sometimes things go to plan. Sometimes they do not. Either way, life is an adventure

5km 25.39
key marker last night. 5km with Stephen and Mark on the run in to my 50 min 10km attempt in October.
Need to take one minute off my 5km to be on target for my 10km goal.
Also need to move from 15st to 14st 3lbs as part of the final big push. Calorie counting at the moment. Allowing for exercise, I ate 1248 calories yesterday versus a target of 1,700. Good start but cannot keep it up. On days where I do not exercise I will struggle. I also need to ensure I have enough fuel to exercise or I will become injured or depressed. Bit of a fine line.
49:59 here we come! Only waited 18 years for it!
Mamma Mia the movie
Just back from seeing this fantastic film with Lauren and Trees. We all loved it. When can we go again!
Meryl Streep leads an all-star cast in the feature-film adaptation of the beloved musical that has been seen by more than 30 million people in 160 cities and 8 languages around the world. Bringing the timeless lyrics and melodies of iconic super group ABBA to movie audiences, Summer 2008 is the season for Mamma Mia!
The three women who created the worldwide smash stage hit—global producer Judy Craymer, writer Catherine Johnson and director Phyllida Lloyd—repeat their roles in bringing this joyful, musical story to the big screen. The Mamma Mia! film is produced by Judy Craymer and Gary Goetzman.
Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth, Stellan Skarsgård, Christine Baranski, Julie Walters, Amanda Seyfried and Dominic Cooper join Streep in this celebration of a mother, a daughter and three possible dads.
An independent, single mother who owns a small hotel on an idyllic Greek island, Donna (Streep) is about to let go of Sophie (Amanda Seyfried), the spirited daughter she’s raised alone. For Sophie’s wedding, Donna has invited her two lifelong best girlfriends—practical and no-nonsense Rosie (Julie Walters) and wealthy, multi-divorcee Tanya (Christine Baranski)—from her one-time backing band, Donna and the Dynamos. But Sophie has secretly invited three guests of her own.
On a quest to find the identity of her father to walk her down the aisle, she brings back three men from Donna’s past to the Mediterranean paradise they visited 20 years earlier. Over 24 chaotic, magical hours, new love will bloom and old romances will be rekindled on this lush island full of possibilities.
Inspired by the storytelling magic of ABBA’s songs from “Dancing Queen” and “S.O.S.” to “Money, Money, Money” and “Take a Chance on Me,” Mamma Mia! is a celebration of mothers and daughters, old friends and new family found.
Another hectic day
Another action packed day.
Off to Broughton this morning to get some new clothes for a night out tonight.
3 hours of Le Tour de France watching Mark Cavendish take a second stage win. Managed a small nap half way through.
Tress wnet for a 6k power walk. I went for an 80 minute run over farms, fields and roads. Another attack of the cows moment.
Just time for a bath and over to TGI Friday to celebrate Nicky's brithday.
